Safety Awards Program
The SMACNA Safety Awards Program is designed to acknowledge and celebrate the commitment and inventive efforts of our members in providing a secure and conducive environment for their employees. It's not just about recognizing past accomplishments; it's about inspiring a future marked by a dedication to safety and health within the HVAC and Sheet Metal industry. There are two types of Safety Awards: Safety Innovator of the Year Award and the Safety Achievement Awards.

- Inspiration: Inspire others to prioritize workplace safety and foster a culture of continuous improvement.
- Visibility: Gain exposure for your organization and enhance your reputation as a safety-conscious employer.
Safety Achievement Awards
Top Safety Performer Award
An elite safety performer certificate will be provided for all members achieving an incident rate 50% better than the U.S. Department of Labor BLS incident rate for Sheet Metal Contractors in the U.S. and the adjacent rate for Canadian members.
Zero Injury and Illness Incidence Award
All members who demonstrate an outstanding safety record with zero reported incidences in 2025 will receive a certificate of safety excellence.
Thank you for your interest in the SMACNA Safety Achievement Awards. The 2026 program is now closed.
The Safety Profile Report summarizes each completed safety profile and showcases the OSHA-based safety performance metrics and positive trends collected through the awards program.
Safety Innovator of the Year Award
With the theme of “Safety Excellence Through Innovation,” this award is open to all SMACNA members who participate in the SMACNA Safety Excellence Awards program. In collaboration with SMACNA Premier Partners Milwaukee Tool and Federated Insurance, the award will be for the company that demonstrates an example of an innovative safety idea, concept, or best practice that statistically improved the company's safety program or culture.
